Established after the Georgian Rose Revolution, Petrotrans has revolutionised oil transportation, eliminating corrupt practices on the Georgian oil transit corridor. Emergence of Petrotrans resulted in reducing historically high railcar demurrage costs significantly, cutting the railcar turnaround to two days from previous ten-twelve days, as well as convenient solutions to oil transporters of avoiding unnecessary vessels demurrage costs. Contact Batumi Oil Terminal History Batumi Oil Terminal handles the technical operation, maintenance, renovation and new construction of the Batumi Oil Terminal facilities. Batumi Oil Terminal is located at the seaport of Batumi, in the Autonomous Republic of Ajaria, Georgia. The Terminal has been operating for over 120 years. In August 1999 the Greenoak Group acquired an oil transshipment facility in Batumi in a privatisation. The Terminal's history goes back to the beginning of the Caucasus oil history in the late nineteenth century but at the time of privatisation it was a run down state-owned facility, which had been the target of many international investment companies due to its important strategic location. The local government was looking for investors to develop the potential of the Terminal but was not successful. However, Greenoak Group succeeded by committing to a significant capital expenditure programme over a three year period. The Terminal transships crude oil and oil products exported by regional producers in Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan and Georgia. During the period of Greenoak's ownership throughput has increased three times and the Terminal has been completely rebuilt and modernised at a cost of more than USD 60 million.
